Oh mine sure isn't. Mine is username@hostname, which doesn't even get you close to my email. Regardless, I connected with: ssh -o IdentityAgent=/dev/null -i /dev/null terminal.shop Really tempted to wr

Well I hope they enjoy getting a lot of fake emails, because that's what's gonna happen.

Nope, TCAS has always been based on secondary surveillance (i.e. transponders). Before ADS-B, it was based on Mode S. Air traffic control has used primary radar and even more primitive methods (position/speed/bearing reports over

Ah lame, they won't even let you browse since they're sold out.

I agree with the first point but not the second. Transponders enable TCAS and TCAS has saved many lives.

FWIW I've investigated disabling the connected features on my 2019 Subaru Outback. The relevant module is the DCM, or Data Communication Module. It is physically located behind the infotainment system (what was once called the radio).

Ah yes I remember back when you just put the system hostname in /etc/hostname. Now we have hostnamed!

Personally I don't like Mikrotik very much. It's just too easy to turn on some feature that disables offloading. I run Ruckus/Brocade ICX6610 and ICX7150 in my lab currently, though the 6610 uses more power than makes sense.

Another one: If it takes 2 hours to dry a shirt on a clothes line, how long will it take to dry 11 shirts? Sometimes I get "2 hours" other times it multiplies. Or similar: If it takes a woman 9 months to make a baby, how long does

Can this take a crappy phone video of an object and convert that into a single high resolution image?

I wonder if we'll see some companies prefer the shorter supply chain over the lower price. Surely there will be enough business cycles for the memories from COVID to fade soon, but perhaps at least some of the military-industrial compl

The following directories always exist in my $HOME. Usually there are also a bunch of other work-in-progress files scattered around, waiting for me to either categorize them, delete them, or give up and move them to one of the catchall dire

Mobile connections are often especially crap, using something much lower bit rate than G.711 µlaw. Even modern landlines use voice activity detection and comfort noise generation instead of just passing through the background sounds. I&#x27

Hey I was waiting for someone to mention DAPnet. Which pager did you buy? Do you run your own gateway? I have a Pilot AL-A26 which is a neat little device, but my example is filtered for 450 to 458 MHz, and on 12.5 kHz steps. I can get it t

Sorry, I wasn't intending to imply that they were American English specific, just that I only have experience with English as spoken in the USA. What's the advantage of the long scale? Just historical?

Cool! Even faster than I realized. What application(s) can actually push 400G through a machine though?

Are people still using 10G in PROD? I thought 40G and 100G had generally replaced that. I have 10G cards in my homelab that are a decade old and cost less than $100.

Well Ohlone Greenway is coincident with the BART tracks. BART still operates there, just above/below the walking path. The other example I gave replaced a railway that had been abandoned for a long time. I agree that rail needs a revit

Perhaps, although perhaps cultural progress as well. For example, perhaps the hippie movement of the 60s was enhanced by the threat of draft in the Vietnam war.

I am not a natural language professional so I don't fully understand how outlines are used by authors. If I map that to software, I might think of asking an LLM to generate pseudocode for something. Of course I could do this myself (as

Rails to trails is awesome. The Ohlone Greenway bike path in the East Bay takes advantage of the BART right of way. The Little Miami scenic trail in Ohio replaced a defunct railway with a bike and walking trail that is used by 700k+ people
